Helen & Lorne was a long time friend of ours. We were also neighbors in Wichita, KS. and spent many vacations in vareous places together. We were together to celebrate the birth of their daughters Kim & Kris. We loved you Helen, you have always been a good friend. Betty & Ernie Rudy
I took care of Helen during her stay at Park West Plaza. She was always so plesent! And was always talking about her Emma! She was so sweet always spoke her mind and then some witch I believe is why we all loved her so much! She always had the best stories to tell and great advice to give! We are all going to miss her so much! God Bless her!
We want to extend our deepest sympathy to Helen’s family. Ken has known her for many years and always enjoyed her (and Lorne’s) friendship. In recent years Greg has leaned on her in many ways and she always helped him when she could. She will be greatly missed. Our thoughts are with you. Ken, Addie & Greg Scott
Helen was a long time friend of mine. I think we had a special connection after spending time in 1982 at my lake home for a ‘smokeout’–which worked for Helen but not for me. We spent one day in the charming town of Council Grove, visiting its historical sites and having lunch at the Hayes House. We were amazed at the big table of men having coffee who received no checks. They got their own coffee at a big pot and dropped money in a bowl to pay for it. I will miss you, Helen. You have been a good friend.
